The film explores themes of grief and spirituality through the lens of supernatural thriller. Starring Jamie Costa as a man grappling with the loss of his dog, “The Activated Man” follows his character as he experiences unsettling visions and a blurred line between reality and the paranormal.
Directed by Nicholas Gyeney and produced through his company Mirror Images Ltd, “The Activated Man” has already received critical acclaim on the film festival circuit. It has won around 30 awards total, including top honors for horror/thriller at the Glendale International Film Festival and HorrOrigins Film Festival in Tucson. New York-based distributor Stonecutter Media acquired North American distribution rights based on this festival success.
